  (sorry about that previous empty post, fingers slipped.)

while my new f11 system is installing, i just wanted to refresh my
memory as to how to download all pending updates but just dump them
into /var/cache, for later updating:

1) /etc/yum.conf, make sure plugins=1, keepcache=1
2) yum install yum-plugin-downloadonly
3) yum update --downloadonly (when the occasion arises)

   is that about right?
